<!-- [DocumentBodyStart:b8eb6501-69d9-4aa2-9bab-076b4c10e8d8] --><div class="jive-rendered-content"><p>Numerous individuals have heard it is conceivable to get a degree taking into account life experience. From the nineteen-year-old PC ****, to moms coming back to the work force, to moderately aged specialists with twenty years at work, nobody needs to waste time taking courses covering natural subjects. Is <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.experiencebaseddegrees.com/" target="_blank">accredited&nbsp; life experience degree</a> and college credits related to this degree&nbsp; genuine or a route for separation learning projects to draw in clueless understudies? </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>The Myth of Life Experience: </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>There are a couple of associations out there guaranteeing degrees in view of your work history. In the event that you send them a resume and a check, they offer anything up to a PhD. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>No genuine, accredited separation learning system gives a degree in view of a resume. Certifications from this sort of confirmation plant are worth minimal more than the paper they are imprinted on. However there are real methods for getting credit for bona fide and obvious life experience. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>The Reality of Life Experience: </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>As a matter of first importance, it is greatly improbable that anybody can get a degree taking into account life experience. An individual who has worked in a field for some years has solid abilities in specific zones, however won't have as wide an expertise set as somebody with a degree. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>Nonetheless it is not exceptional for individuals to get course credits and decrease the quantity of classes needed for graduation. This idea is not new to the web. Indeed before the separation learning fever took off, most colleges offered humanities credits to understudies experienced in regions, for example, foreign dialects. Somebody who experienced childhood in a bilingual family unit or in a foreign nation could take a dialect capability test and get credit just as they had taken a few hours of dialect courses. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>Life experience credit tackled another measurement amid the ascent of the PC. Endless individuals grew up with right on time PCs, procuring PC aptitudes on a level past what college graduates were realizing. For them, taking college PC classes was similar to forcing different understudies to rehash grade school. Colleges thought of approaches to offer these understudies methods for testing out obviously necessities and facilitating their approach to degrees. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>As more homes got access to the web, separation learning projects offered another, non-conventional route for individuals to interpret their experiences in a large group of fields into course credit. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>Demonstrating Verifiable Experience: </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>Resumes are truly not helpful for deciding life experience credit; indeed, most separation learning projects don't even take a gander at them. Rather, the understudy must give confirmation of aptitude authority. This could incorporate work tests, proceeding with instruction credits, or accreditations. These materials are assessed and proper credits are relegated. </p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>In spite of the fact that life experience most likely won't get you a degree, it can give many credits and shave months or years off of your time at college.</p><p style="min-height: 8pt; height: 8pt; padding: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p>Reference: <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.experiencebaseddegrees.com/fast-degree/" target="_blank">Fast Degrees Online </a></p></div><!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:b8eb6501-69d9-4aa2-9bab-076b4c10e8d8] -->educationonlinedegreeSat, 21 Feb 2015 10:35:38 GMTmsoe-admin@msoe.eduhttp://www.msoe.edu/community/hubs/alumni/blog/2015/02/21/college-credits-for-life-experience-in-distance-education-programs2015-02-21T10:35:38Z5 months 1 week ago0Check out the jobs at Fermilab https://www.linkedin.com/company/fermilabhttp://www.msoe.edu/thread/4088
